yes, but i’m arguing that democracy being applied in other methods is not understood by the average American. they assume it means how i defined it which is why i think it’s the only version most people are discussing that aren’t politically minded.

we never had direct democracy anyway which is the only democracy that should be considered “democracy” when average people think of the term.

more than half of us don’t know what a constitutional republic is.

it’s both. his history shows the kind of liberal he was and he was never particularly progressive. he even avoided the term and disliked it lol. he got worse once elected though… nowadays he’s pathetically reprehensible as opposed to out of touch and middle of the road.
